Environment, Space, Place is a transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary journal commi ed to values contribu ng
to our rootedness to the earth and a unement to the
environment, space, and place. Interdisciplinary is taken
to mean that each discipline is encouraged to share its
own par cular excellence with the other disciplines in
an open exchange. Transdisciplinary is taken to mean
that contributors are required to make the “geographical
turn.” Meant in the etymological sense of “earthinscripon” or the spa ality of meaning, the geographical turn
frames or makes thema c the spa al aspect of any and
all earthly / worldly phenomena.

History of Communism in Europe
Published issues:
(ISSN 2069-3192 paperback; ISSN 2069-3206 electronic)
History of Communism in Europe (HCE) presents itself as
a yearly journal open to all academic inquiries, which are
sensi ve to the moral sobriety, conceptual complexity,
and methodological sophis ca on required by any sustained research on totalitarianism. The scholarly invesga ons of the 20th century must remain an interdisciplinary enterprise, in which raw data and refined
concepts help us understand the subtle dynamics of any
given phenomenon. History is polyphonic and so the
wri ng of it must be. It is never easy to pinpoint the
causal rela onship between dis nct events, or the agency of different ideas. Historians talk about chronologies,
philosophers study the ideological muta ons of the
Communist doctrinal monism, sociologists and anthropologists look at everyday life (such as the interac on
between majority and minority groups). Some are interested in overarching narra ves, while others enrich our
knowledge of the past with case-studies. The study of
Communism calls for a subtle “fusion of horizons”: on
the one hand, there is the interpreter, with his or her
subjec ve background, prejudices, and intellectual proclivi es. On the other hand, a whole historical age looms
at large over the object found under scholarly scru ny.

This book series is dedicated to social sciences and covers the fields of sociology, cultural anthropology and the
domains connected. Due to the fact that cultural anthropology and sociology are fields of study built as types of
social sciences in a rela on of reciprocity and self-posioning, we started this series in a logic of complementarity and mutual enrichment. Zeta Series in Anthropology & Sociology is organized in two essen al parts: 1.
author books, collec ons of ar cles, valuable PhD theses of various scholars. This sec on encourages scienfic communica on between well-known professors
and young scholars. 2. collec ons of ar cles or papers
resul ng from conferences, colloquia, congresses, seminars covering our fields of interest.

pour qui la forma on des villes doit s’interpréter à par r
de l’imaginaire et du symbolique. L’enjeu de ce livre
consiste à réunir les connaissances actuelles, u les à la

nomment la naissance de la civilisa on et d›une morphologie sociale urbaine. C›est du symbolique vers le matériel, que s›inscrit la recherche qui est à la base du livre.

« Ce livre constitue un pas remarquable fait dans la
redécouverte de la préhistoire à partir d’une critique
socio-anthropologique que les préhistoriens ont souvent
été jusque là incapables de faire. Mais il semble que les
temps changent aussi dans le milieu et cet apport de
Dan Semenescu sera précieux dans le cadre de remise
en perspective de notre passé. » (Alain Gras)
« Cette contribution apparaît comme de la plus grande
utilité pour désigner ce que les évolutionnistes nomment
la naissance de la civilisation (notamment urbaine) et
que l’on peut appeler, de manière plus neutre ou moins
idéologique et donc plus scientifique, la naissance d’une
morphologie sociale à partir d’un système symbolicoinstitutionnel. » (Salvador Juan)

which some mes appear quite surprising. Plants and
trees are their main source of income. It does not mean
nevertheless that they are managed as simple commodi es or as mere objects of knowledge. Rather, they
are o en viewed as partakers of large rela onal networks, bringing together human people as well as animal and vegetal beings: in many cases, plants and animals are even considered as true Persons. That was the
reason why we decided to organize a symposium with a
clear emphasis on this rela onal dimension. We present
here eight selected papers from this panel. The topics
are diverse, but all of them enlighten how such an approach opens new ways for the analysis, concerning
everyday management of plants and ethnobotanical
knowledge, as well as commodi sa on, which is anything but a ques on of strictly economic ra onality.

In this fascina ng and unique book, Alexandru Bălăşescu
explores ques ons of Islamic dress, modernity and public space in Paris and Tehran. How are we to understand
the exclusion of the Islamic dress from public space in
France if, at the same me, trendy French women and
wealthy Middle Eastern tourists shop for designer-label
hijab, apparently accep ng its conversion into a (depoli cited, deracinated) commodity? And how are we to
understand the crea on of “designer label” Islamic
dress, when fashionable women recast the meanings
and prac ces associated with veiling, understood by
Western observers to be the mark of their subordina on
to a religious regime, into couture? This challenging
book significantly complicates the ques on of Islamic
dress in the modern world, and, indeed, ques ons hallowed categories of religion, secularism, and modernity
itself (Bill Maurer, Professor of Anthropology, University
of California, Irvine. Author of Mutual Life, Limited: Islamic Banking, Alterna ve Currencies, Lateral Reason).
Alexandru BĂLĂŞESCU holds a PhD in Anthropology

ArchiPhen is simultaneously architecture and phenomenology, architecture’s phenomenology, phenomenology in architecture. The name was coined in a moment
of convic on that an invita on to ArchiPhen is mely for
prac oners, scholars and students unaware of the importance of phenomenology for architectural discourse
and making within a contemporary context. Phenomenology is rooted in the first person perspec ve and seeks

With reference to architecture, the study of phenomenology may inform architectural discourse by borrowing
from phenomenologists-philosophers, by implemen ng
phenomenological thought in architectural making,
analysis and interpreta on, and by applying phenomenology, as radical empiricism, to the realm of architecture. Although phenomenology has been prac ced in
various guises for centuries, it came into its own in the
early 20th century, and was explicitly related to architecture for the first me in the 1950’s. Many scholars
have since contributed, to the discussion of architecture-phenomenology, themes for considera on that
have evolved with the metamorphosis of architectural
history and its context. Shedding light on the most profound concerns of architecture, the field is a rac ng
new genera ons of scholars in a variety of events,
among them par cipants in the Architecture and Phenomenology Conference, held at the Technion, Israel
Ins tute of Technology in May 2007. Based on a selecon of conference presenta ons, this publica on of
short, illustrated essays intends to provide an accessible
entrance into the field of architecture and phenomenology. Authors were requested to briefly address exis ng
or planned buildings, as examples of the relevance of
phenomenology to architecture. (Iris Aravot)

Theology in the 21st century can think through its
themes of reflec on only by mirroring the polyphonic
character of the early Chris an tradi on, seen as an
open project. Patris c authors dis nguished themselves
through their constant a empt to construe Chris an
doctrine by contempla ng theologically and conversing
philosophically about truth, goodness, beauty, looked upon
as first a ributes of God. Thus, early Chris anity did not

bring about the divorce of revela on from the philosophical, aesthe c, literary or civic pursuit of truth. The early
scholas c thinkers endeavoured, in their turn, to reconcile
the patris c legacy with the metaphysical systems of Greek
origin in ways that were later challenged both by theologians of Eastern Orthodox and Protestant persuasion.
This new book series aims at exploring the conceptual
and ins tu onal organisa on of Chris an faith in conversa on with different aspects of Western civilisa on.
In what way does the Eastern Orthodox differ from the
Chris an La n understanding of fides et ra o? What was
Athens to Jerusalem, and how different was Mecca from
these European centres of art and thought? How does
theology today relate to the Western history of ideas?
How can the rela onship between the Church and the
secular politeia be envisaged in accordance with the parculari es of each culture? These are only some of the
many broad ques ons hosted by this Zeta Books series.

This is the first comprehensive study of John Henry Newman’s works related to his founda on of a university in
Ireland. It considers his Dublin Wri ngs (1851-1859) in
their totality and full meaning, in an a empt to show
that they share a unity that is not merely chronological
but also conceptual. It analyses Newman’s volumes, arcles and sermons produced while he was in residence
in Dublin and explains the historical background that led
to the establishment of the Catholic University of Ireland. This work offers an original explora on of the influences of philosophers such as Aristotle, Cicero and Locke
on Newman’s own thought. Aristotle’s inspira on is presented in a new light and compared with Ciceronian
rhetoric and the U litarianism of Locke and his followers.

www.zetabooks.com
Moreover, the intellectual, moral and ar s c dimensions
of the human person in Newman’s Dublin Wri ngs are
discussed, in conjunc on with his concepts of the unity
of knowledge and of the philosophical habit of mind.
The final chapter is the author’s personal reflec on on
the issues that Newman raised, with reference to the
development of university educa on and to contemporary thinkers such as Derrida and MacIntyre.
Angelo Bo one has covered some aspects of Newman
from an original perspec ve, focusing par cularly on the
rhetorical elements of his wri ngs. In this respect, his
work is innova ve, as Newman’s Dublin Wri ngs have
been always considered only for their contribu on to a
debate on educa on. Angelo Bo one covers new areas,
like the influence of Cicero or the role of the study of
foreign and ancient languages in the university founded
by Newman. Angelo Bo one’s book and its ming for
publica on may generate new perspec ves on this period of Newman’s life. He has given a philosophical flavour to this study, which is novel as other authors have
wri en about Newman mostly from a theological or
educa onal view point. (Domenico Iervolino, University
of Naples)
Bo one’s book is an historical and thema c treatment
of Newman’s Dublin wri ngs, the best know of which is
The Idea of a University. The merit of this work is that is
makes available an account of many other wri ngs of
Newman that are not generally available, and presents
an integrated interpreta on of them. Reading The Idea
of a University in the context of his other Dublin wri ngs
allows the reader to gain a more complete and nuanced
understanding of this centrally important text. (Gerard
Casey, University College Dublin).

La recherche vise à fonder l’hospitalité comme no on
première ouvrant, par une exigence intrinsèque, à un
discours théologique. Sur les traces du récit de la Rencontre de Mambré (Genèse 18) nous essayons de montrer comment l’hospitalité représente et engage toujours le divin et cela également dans d’autres tradi ons
religieuses que le chris anisme. Dans chaque cas, il
s’agirait toujours d’un dieu qui est reçu ou d’un « mystérieux Autre », envoyé par Dieu. Après avoir exploré la
valeur de l’hospitalité en analysant l’arrière-fond des
mythes, des symboles, des mo fs (dans la produc on
li éraire et ar s que profane aussi bien que sacrée) et
d’un certain univers mental qui cons tue, plus ou moins
directement, l’héritage proche oriental commun et intégré dans les textes sacrés des trois monothéismes,
nous reviendrons à l’histoire de l’exégèse de Genèse 18
et à un regard compara f sur l’interpréta on de la
théophanie de Mambré dans les trois religions abrahamiques. En s’appuyant sur ce e analyse et déclinant la

¤ FOUNDATIONS OF MODERN THOUGHT
Series edited by the Research Centre for the Foundaons of Modern Thought, University of Bucharest
The FMT Series in early modern thought is dedicated foremost to scholarly studies in the history of early modern
philosophy, covering a period ranging from the end of the
Renaissance era (16th century) to the first part of the 17th
century. As the history of philosophy becomes more and
more contextualized, the series is opened also to fields
such as intellectual history, history and philosophy of science, late medieval studies or the history of art, in the
spirit of a cross-disciplinary enquiry into the founding elements of the European modern consciousness.
Publishing author books, monographs or collec ons of
ar cles, and edited volumes resul ng from various academic events, the series benefits from the strong support of an interna onal board of well-known scholars in
the field of early modern studies. It is edited by a team
of young and senior scholars gathered by the Research
Centre for the Founda ons of Modern Thought of the
University of Bucharest. We are welcoming works of
young as well as senior scholars, focused studies or general monographs, wri en in one of the interna onal
academic-working languages.
The mo va ng spirit of the Series lies in its effort to
strengthen the communica on between Romanian and
foreign scholars and to bring the discipline in the frontlines of the Romanian intellectual awareness today.

Ce livre sort d’une réflexion constante au sujet de la dimension religieuse au XVIIe siècle, du rôle de la théologie dans la forma on des concepts philosophiques modernes et de la part du spirituel dans la li érature
européenne de ce e époque. Pour les individus de ce e
époque, penser signifie se mouvoir dans l’univers des
idées. La progression dans cet univers a des propriétés
radicalement différentes de la progression dans l’univers
de la vie, c’est-à-dire de la temporalité vécue. L’un des
critères les plus manifestes est le fait que, à l’intérieur
de l’univers des idées on peut à tout moment revenir en
arrière, alors que dans le régime temporel de l’univers
extérieur on est toujours situé. Une autre propriété qui
dis ngue le régime des idées est le fait que commencer
à penser signifie d’abord, pour certains philosophes du
moins, jeter les bases d’un nouveau mode de comprendre le monde, dont la différence par rapport aux autres
modes s’affirme dès l’origine. L’univers des idées, pour
autant que nous l’entreprenons de manière différente,
est ce qui nous dis ngue parmi nos semblables. Dans
ce e perspec ve, commencer à penser veut dire commencer à être, où, par un raccourci qui n’enlève rien à
l’idée, être soi-même.

L’homme d’esprit est une figure dont les traits apparaissent au seuil du Grand Siècle. Ses préoccupa ons morales envisagent l’être social, en dénonçant l’idéal contempla f représenté par le sage isolé et par la vie de

à travers des échafaudages métaphysiques, des reposionnements religieux, des stratégies li éraires et des
techniques du pouvoir qui s’entrecroisent de manière

As Francis Bacon put it on the fron spiece of his Novum
Organum, gra ing an apocalyp c vision on a research
program, mul pertransibunt et mul plex erit scien a.
The development of science becomes steadily associated with the end of earthly life, a theme that would
resound deeply in Western thought up un l Goethe’s
Faust. What grounds then the mul plicity of knowledge? What is the common trunk out of which all realms
of knowledge unfold, like the burgeoning branches of
the celebrated tree? A er the Augus nian imprint of the
first Chris an centuries and a er the admirable effort of
the high scholas cs’ Aristotelian and Chris an synthesis,
the seventeenth century undertakes new scien fic work
with the need of a new steady ground. All the big names
of the modern era, Francis Bacon, Galileo, Descartes, Robert Boyle, Spinoza or Leibniz, found themselves engaged
in the search for a common trunk of wisdom, each of
them nourishing the in mate convic on that they possessed the philosophical core which would sa sfy the
learned men’s newly found appe te for indefinitely extending knowledge. In doing this, all of these masters
needed to confront the philosophical tradi on that they
received, reworking and merging together the old structures of science through this epistemological prism of the
search for the unity of knowledge. (Vlad Alexandrescu)

La compréhension de l’argument de l’existence de Dieu,
tel que formulé par saint Anselme, dépend en èrement
du concept de hiérarchie du monde, concept hérité de
manière indirecte du néoplatonisme. Sous le concept de
hiérarchie du monde nous comprenons une représentaon de l’univers sous la forme de réalités ordonnées
selon des dis nc ons qualita ves, dont le statut correspond à la place occupée dans cet ordre et qui sont
définies par la par cipa on à des réalités qui leur sont
supérieures.
Indépendamment du fait de savoir si saint Anselme a
trouvé ou non l’existence divine, on peut dire qu’il a créé,
ne serait-ce que par ses cri ques, un des n culturel du
problème soulevé, plus palpable et plus éloquent pour
notre histoire à nous que ne le serait l’existence divine
elle-même. À l’autre extrême de sa significa on historique, il y a le complexe réseau de textes, d’influences, de
paradigmes passés et valorisés, consciemment ou pas,
par saint Anselme. Ceux-ci font de lui un excep onnel
interprète du néoplatonisme et de saint Augus n qui
crée son propre des n implicite par ces interpréta ons.

Boethius’ masterpiece, The Consola on of Philosophy (c.
524) can be counted among the most popular books of
the early Middle Ages: it was extensively copied, glossed,
commented upon, and translated. But how did the medieval West rediscover it? Where did the text resurface
at the end of the eighth century? How did ninth- and
tenth-century scholars react to this complicated book,
replete with Platonic lore yet devoid of explicit references to Christ? How did translators such as Alfred and
Notker cope with the difficult philosophical vocabulary
of the text they turned into Old English and Old High
German? A few answers are ventured in the present
book, whose purpose is to examine the impact of the
last great book of late An quity upon the La n and vernacular culture of the ninth and tenth centuries.
The recep on of Boethius’ Consola on of Philosophy
from its rediscovery around 800 through the ninth and
tenth centuries is one of the most fascina ng stories of
early medieval culture. Adrian Papahagi’s studies offer
some new theories about the key players in this story,
including Alcuin, Theodulf, Notker and Alfred, soundly
based in a fresh study of the manuscripts, and challenge
some long-held convic ons. (Malcolm R. Godden, Bosworth and Rawlinson Professor of Anglo-Saxon, Oxford
University)
Adrian Papahagi has reopened the discussion about the
transmission of Boethius’ Consola o Philosophiae in the
Carolingian age. By examining afresh the manuscripts
and available bibliography, he summarises the state of
the ques on and clarifies a few vexed ques ons raised
by previous scholars. Papahagi does not confine himself
to a pars destruens: he also proposes a pars construens,
which must henceforth be taken into account. (Fabio
Troncarelli, Professor of La n Palaeography, Università
di Viterbo)
Adrian Papahagi (BA, MA, PhD Sorbonne) is a lecturer
in the English Department of the University of Cluj, Romania, and head of this university’s Centre for Manuscript Studies. He taught at several French universi es
(Paris IV-Sorbonne, Paris VII-Denis Diderot, Ins tut

Plo n est parvenu à concilier ce qui passe par ailleurs

étonnant, c’est qu’il l’a fait naturellement, comme si cela
allait de soi. Ce livre montre qu’il en va réellement ainsi
[email protected]
www.zetabooks.com
— contrairement au lieu commun qui veut que la raison
et la mys que soient en conflit. La raison comprend,
tandis que la mys que conduit à aimer; mais peut-on
aimer sans comprendre? D’une part, la mys que semble
toujours en avance par rapport à la raison. Mais en quoi
est-elle différente et que suppose-t-elle de plus que la
raison? D’autre part, peut-on se passer de la raison pour
aimer? Le néoplatonisme répond par la néga ve: sans
compréhension, il n’y a jamais d’amour véritable. Tout
se joue là, dans ce rapport entre la raison et la mys que,
où la mys que complète et achève la démarche ra onnelle. Plo n et ses successeurs, de Porphyre à Damascius,
ont saisi ce e excep onnelle complémentarité. Nous
serions en droit de parler ici, ni plus ni moins, d’une
véritable raison mys que. Ce livre démontre à quel point
ce e formule s’applique au néoplatonisme, tel qu’on le
voit à l’œuvre à par r de Plo n.
Dans ce e étude, Daniel Mazilu comble enfin une lacune
importante dans l’histoire de la philosophie grecque.
Jusqu’à ce livre en effet, nous ne disposions pas d’une discussion cri que de l’ensemble de la tradi on dont le
thème générateur est la polarité de la raison et de la mysque. C’est chose faite. La pensée de Plo n, de Jamblique
et de Proclus est ici relue dans le but d’y me re en relief
la tension entre le projet ra onnel et la philosophie religieuse: sur cet horizon, l’auteur présente les enjeux d’une
interpréta on de l’élan mys que et de l’ensemble des
ques ons éthiques qui s’y ra achent, en par culier la purifica on et le recueillement, l’enthousiasme et l’extase.
Daniel Mazilu plaide à la fois pour une non sépara on, en
ce sens que la raison n’est pas délaissée, et pour un dépassement, puisque l’expérience mys que et religieuse
présente une réelle différence. Ce e réconcilia on éclaire
toute la tradi on et fait de ce livre une synthèse novatrice
de la place de la raison dans la métaphysique grecque
tardive. (Georges Leroux)

This study is a phenomenological inquiry into several
rela vely unexplored phenomena, including certain key
methodological issues. It seeks to elicit and explicate the
grounds of free-fantasy varia on, which Husserl insists
contains his “fundamental methodological insight” since
it ar culates “the fundamental form of all par cular
transcendental methods…” In the course of pursuing the
full sense of this method and its grounds, the essay also
uncovers the origins and eventual presence of “self” and
explores the mul ple connec ons among self, mental
life, embodiment and the surrounding world. To that
end, it is necessary to take seriously Husserl’s otherwise
odd declara on that “‘feigning’ [‘Fik on’] makes up the
vital element of phenomenology as of every other eide c science…”, and thus that every philosopher must
“fer lize” his or her “fantasy” through works of art and
history as well as other areas and prac ces of human
life. The essay offers an in-depth probing of several striking but largely unexplored phenomena: exemplifying
and possibilizing, and concludes with an explora on of
one of the most pervasive themes in phenomenological
inquiry: intersubjec vity.
At Play in the Field of Possibles is beau ful in its lucidity,
represen ng the late style of Zaner’s extraordinary career in philosophy and bioethics. Zaner sets us straight
about what makes phenomenology dis nct and necessary, leading us from Husserl’s method of reduc on to
the o en neglected but crucially valuable idea about
free-fantasy varia on or as Zaner calls it “possibilizing.”
This book is at once technical and prac cal. It deserves
to be read by social scien sts and clinicians as well as
philosophers, because Zaner shows us that phenomenology truly is a philosophy of everyday life. Anyone
interested in how human consciousness makes sense of
iits world and the other people in that world will find this
b
book to be an essen al guide.

The basic conten on of Reflec ve Analysis is that phenomenology is most fundamentally an approach, rather
than a set of texts or concepts: phenomenologizing involves modes of observa on and analysis that we can
learn to perform be er. The author presents his own
account step by step, using everyday examples and dealing not only with perceiving and thinking (leading
themes for most phenomenologists), but also with valuing and willing. Many charts and diagrams are used to
summarize key dis nc ons, and the book also includes
exercises that help readers refine this approach for
themselves. The text was designed for college students,
and there is a “Preface for Instructors” who wish to use
the book in the classroom, but others will find this a
friendly, helpful “first introduc on” that they can study
on their own. The work is suitable for students in all
disciplines, not just philosophers, and will be especially
welcome to any reader who appreciates learning by doing and prefers examples to footnotes.

The second edi on of The Theory and Prac ce of Husserl’s Phenomenology is a clear and concise introduc on
to the theore cal background and the rigorous method
of Edmund Husserl (1859–1938), perhaps the most influen al philosopher of the twen eth century and the
founder of the phenomenological movement. According
to Husserl phenomenology is not a body of knowledge
but a scien fic prac ce based in a rigorous and difficult
method, a method that takes long effort and prac ce to
enter into and in which to develop some significant results. Since many scholars and students do not read
many of Husserl’s published works, this text is meant to
show the core unity of focus and method throughout
decades of his phenomenological prac ce and refinement. The present work covers the historical origin of
phenomenology and some main thema c results that
appear in Husserl’s works, and provides an introduc on
to phenomenology as a prac ce, through explica on of
the “how to” of producing a phenomenological descripon. The author, an award-winning teacher, is a recognized expert in the phenomenological method and author of seven books and numerous ar cles in the field.

This powerful book documents in compelling detail, and
with great compassion, the long-term consequences of
early life abuse and neglect as they affect health
throughout life. The book highlights the importance of
elici ng each person’s story as a means of achieving relief from the emo onal and physiological consequences
of early life adversity. In so doing, the book also provides
a provoca ve reflec on upon the rela onship between
brain and mind. Furthermore, it argues that modern
biomedical science needs to elaborate a more sophis -
cated appraisal of an individual’s reflec ons upon salient
life me experiences, since they are key for understanding how these experiences affect health through biological pathways that, on the one hand, promote adapta on and, on the other hand, can be dysregulated and
cause damage. (Bruce McEwen, Ph.D., Alfred E. Mirsky
Professor, Rockefeller University, New York)
Dr. Kirkengen has produced a remarkable and revolu onary work. She has validated the personal experiences of
abused persons in a totally new way. She has drawn upon
a philosophy of phenomenology to establish the truth of
the “lived experience”. She brings the “phenomena” of
lived experience closer to the “noumena” that might have
been observed by uninvolved witnesses had such persons
been secretly watching the abusive events that affected
the people she describes. This book discards conven onal
clinical processes and conven onal medical research processes for the assessment of sick persons and their condions. Conven onal epidemiology, also takes its lumps.
Conven onal medical thinkers may have some difficulty
with diges on of Kirkengen’s conceptualiza ons. This
book should be read by all medical doctors, who have an
interest in violence and abuse. Most of them will find it
very useful in framing the problems that their pa ents
bring to them. It will also be useful in producing precise
defini ons of the specific acts that our society must learn
to prevent if we are to get healthy. (David L. Chadwick,
MD, Director emeritus, founder of the Chadwick Center

Health Center, San Diego, USA)

The purpose of this collec on is to show the originality
of the phenomenology of Dorion Cairns, arguably
Edmund Husserl’s closest disciple. The word “studies”
The studies in this volume show how he thus crea vely
con nued Husserl’s work. The philosophic ideal is revised, the account of the cons tu on of Others is corrected, the descrip on of sense-transfer extended, the
theory of hyle c data is revised, sensa as well as appearances are shown to be adumbra ve, aspects of the body
that Husserl seemed to have overlooked are described,
and original inves ga ons of appearances and of willing
are assembled. A methodological descrip on is appended that may help make the emphasis on descrip on and
the near absence of argumenta on clearer. That descrip on also helps one understand the focus on individual human mental life and the sensuous perceiving
of physical things as where to begin. And if they explain
away any seeming naturalis c emphasis, the many references to willing and valuing throughout this book should
also reduce suspicions of intellectualism. Furthermore,
there are no bases for considering phenomenology solipsis c or about disembodied mental lives to be found
here. Cairns was deeply impressed by the Abbau-Au au
method and held that Husserl came to recognize the
importance of the primarily passive or automa c infrastratum of mental life too late completely to adjust his
concepts. This adjustment of concepts guided Cairns’s
effort to bring the thought published by Husserl in his
life me up to the level of the Cartesianische Meditaonen and the Formale und transzendentale Logik. And
he was always endeavoring to develop be er terminology for phenomenology in English.

There is an extensive apprecia on of culture and hence
opposi on to naturalism in this text. The a empt is
made to clarify the overlapping concepts of environment and technology, which are unfortunately o en
considered separately by philosophers today. Since
these are moral issues, it has seemed appropriate to
include at the end two analyses of more general bearing.
And since phenomenological exposi on is an art of examples, there are references to such things as automobiles, bank robbers, birds, broken legs, gardens, nutcrackers, parks, roads, snakes, taxi drivers, trees, trucks,
and vegetarians. Egological phenomenology is prac ced
for the most part, but the place of intersubjec vity is
regularly indicated and noe co-noema c analysis is relied on prac cally everywhere. Thus encounterings and
things-as-encountered are analyzed into experiencings and
posi ngs and experiencings are analyzed into the perceivings, rememberings, and expec ngs of things in the now,
the past, and the future with their manners of givenness
and appearance. Then posi ngs are analyzed into posi ve,
nega ve, and neutral believing, valuings, and willing or acons (in broad significa ons) with the firm and shaky and
also intrinsic and extrinsic posi onal characteris cs in their
correlates dis nguished and described. The emphasis is on

the prepredica ve cons tu on of what it is urged be
called “basic culture,” the difference between I-engaged
opera ons and secondarily passive habits and tradi ons
is recognized, and, despite that these are basically surface
analyses, something is nevertheless said about iden fying
and differen a ng inten onal syntheses. Finally, the need
to carry analysis on beyond epistemology and axiology to
praxiology is emphasized in descrip ons of how believing,

In an ar cle wri en in 1959, in commemora on of Husserl’s 100th birthday, Merleau-Ponty writes that “with
regard to a philosopher whose venture has awakened
so many echoes, and at such an apparent distance from
the point where he himself stood, any commemora on

is also a betrayal” (“The Philosopher and His Shadow”
p. 159). These words, however, are not meant to prevent
us from commemora ng a philosopher and his work.
Quite the contrary, for Merleau-Ponty this “betrayal”
seems to have a posi ve meaning. In fact it means that,
in order to do jus ce to a philosopher’s work we should
not—or perhaps, we could not—merely repeat it. To
keep the thought alive we should trace and conjure up
its “unthoughts,” and the greater the work of a philosopher, the richer the unthought elements in that work.
Commemora ng Merleau-Ponty’s 100th birthday in
2008, nearly 50 years a er his death, his thought is s ll
alive. His work le us with many elements yet to think,
not because it was unfinished by his sudden death, but
because it was meant to be open and interroga ve and
thus not to be closed off. The essays collected here honor the open-ended nature of Merleau-Ponty’s thought
by bringing the themes of his work into dialogue with
various debates in the humani es, the sciences, and
contemporary philosophy.

Even though the Asia-Pacific Region is geographically far
away from the birthplace of phenomenology, the development of phenomenology already had its impact on this
area as early as the 1920s. Notably, the Kaizo ar cles of
Husserl were first published in Japanese long before they
were published in their original language. Currently there
are at least 20 local phenomenological organiza ons in this
region. The present volume gathers papers from countries
or regions such as Japan, Korea, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan,
and Australia. The ar cles are arranged according to their
themes, which can be divided in six different categories: a)
Implanta on of European Philosophy and Intercultural
Dialogue; b) Compara ve Study of Husserl’s Phenomenology and Yogacara Buddhism; c) The Study of Merleau-Ponty’s Phenomenology and its Implica on; d) Research on

POST SCRIPTUM OPO
can be seen within human science research: theore cal
framework, methodological thinking and research pracce. We are convinced that the essence of phenomenology can be found in its prac ce. In this sense, the key
ques on for understand this philosophy is not “what is
phenomenology”, but “how to do it.” Phenomenology is
a way to educate our vision, to define our posture, to
broaden the way we look at the world. That is why phenomenology is not only explicable as a method (or style)
for philosophical research, but also as a powerful tool
for research in human science.

A sample is always representa ve, though not always of
that which it purports to represent. The ques on is
whether this sample of essays presented in the La n
American volume of Phenomenology 2010, represents
the current prac ce of Phenomenology in La n America.
Even though the ques on is debatable, some of the essays in this sample represent, undoubtedly, the best of
the phenomenological produc on in their countries of
origin. Others may not, at least in the same degree. But
all of them taken together seem to represent fairly well
the situa on of Phenomenology in the La n sector of

Freedom is a value, that phenomenology explored over
the decades in various ways. Some of the authors in this
volume are addressing it directly, for some others it is
an opera ve concept, which helps us to clarify aspects
or processes of the subjec ve or objec ve world. Invesga ng the rela onship between nature and subjec vity is a tradi onal way to deal with the topic of freedom,
but nonetheless one which provides us a solid ground.
The en re phenomenological enterprise is founded on
freedom, since the phenomenological reduc on is, according to Husserl himself, the result of an absolutely free
act. Similarly what phenomenology brought forward was
a specific type of analysis, which is difficult to be understood without in the absence of free ac on. Freedom is
not only an “object” of the inves ga on, but also a “living
telos”. It is noteworthy therefore to underline that the

The first part of this collec on presents ar cles about
central themes of European phenomenology – developed by posi ons from Husserl, Scheler, Heidegger, Fink,
Stein, Merleau-Ponty, Ricœur, Beauvoir, Derrida, Henry,
and Patočka –, while the second part first of all deals
with phenomenological problems, specifically with a
phenomenology of borderline situa ons like experiences of pain and insanity, but also with so “normal”
phenomena like the acous c volume of sound, further
with topics of pain ng and photography, and with a
philosophic-mathema cal ques on in the end. On the
whole, this collec on provides evidence for a main tendency in contemporary phenomenology, as it is the phenomenological research on structures of the living human body including such problems like birth, love, and
pain. At the same me, the ar cles are documents
manifes ng a phenomenological crossing over borders:
they force a confronta on between different phenomenological posi ons and engage with other philosophies
on the basis of phenomenological points of view, and
they apply phenomenological analyses to other disciplines such as psychopathology and aesthe cs. Finally,
the border itself becomes a topic: in the shape of the

Even though this volume represents half of the essays
from the North American region, it reflects the breadth
and scope of interest that characterized the internaonal mee ng of phenomenologists in Hong Kong. It
contains nineteen essays from Canadian and United
States phenomenologists represen ng thirteen different
phenomenological organiza ons. This volume is organized roughly—give that there is an inevitable overlapping—in terms of the historical figures in the phenomenological movement, beginning with Edmund Husserl,
and then following with sec ons devoted to the Contemporaries of Husserl, The First Genera on a er Husserl, and Other Authors and Themes. Of course, each of
these sec on headings o en embraces a variety of philosophers, with, for example, “The First Genera on”
including the work of Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Emmanuel Levinas, and Paul Ricoeur. In addion, in each sec on the essayists take up different aspects of the thought of these figures in the tradi on or
find novel applica ons to areas that these figures might
never have an cipated. One has the sense in these essays
that phenomenology is a growing philosophical movement encompassing a rich variety of thinkers and topics,
across genera ons and across con nents.
Phenomenology beyond philosophy approaches rela vely
new problems in our mul disciplinary tradi on. In it there
is much less scholarship on texts and much more inves gaon of things themselves. The methods of phenomenology
relied on can appear different when not related to the usual philosophical problems. Many concepts are imported, so
to speak, from philosophical phenomenology and adapted
in new contexts and this would seem the most conspicuous
feature of phenomenology beyond philosophy, i.e., originally philosophical concepts used in contexts beyond the
tradi onal scope of philosophy in our tradi on.

Phenomenology 2005—5 volumes x 2 parts
(10 books)
The Phenomenology 2005 contains 140 ar cles and approach a total of 4,000 pages. It has been developed from
the second mee ng, in Lima, of the Organiza on of Phenomenological Organiza ons (O.P.O.) and shows the current state of development and vitality of the world-wide,
mul disciplinary, mul lingual, and century-old tradi on
of phenomenology. Before some remarks about the organiza on of this massive publica on, something further
about the magnitude, complexity, and development of
this tradi on can be grasped through some counts that
have been made of publica ons, organiza ons, individuals, countries, and disciplines.

In seeking to gain an overview of the Asian contribu ons
to Phenomenology 2005, two dis nc ons have proven
useful: “Western/intercultural” and “pure theory/applied
theory.” The first one is concerned either with (1) the
purely “Western style” problems or with (2) the intercultural issues. The second one is concerned with either (1)
philosophical phenomenology or (2) disciplines beyond
philosophy, such as, sociology, psychiatry, and photography. Overlapping them, we see four categories occur as a
result: A. Western and philosophical; B. Western and applied; C. intercultural and philosophical; D. intercultural
and applied.

In Spanish-speaking La n America, phenomenology has
a history of over seventy years, the beginning of which
can be traced back to José Ortega y Gasset’s three visits
during the first half of the 20th century, and also to the
efforts made by prominent thinkers, such as Antonio
Caso in Mexico and Francisco Romero in Argen na, to
bring phenomenological themes and standpoints into

philosophical teaching within the region. In the next
genera on, phenomenology has been able to build its
way and become strong and stable through the endeavors of José Gaos and Eduardo Nicol in Mexico, Danilo
Cruz Vélez in Colombia, Ernesto Mayz Vallenilla in Venezuela, Alberto Wagner de Reyna and Francisco Miró
Quesada in Perú, Félix Schwartzmann in Chile, and Eugenio Pucciarelli in Argen na. It should be noted that, in
the 1970s, volumes wri en by Alberto Rosales, and
Guillermo Hoyos Vásquez were published in the Phaenomenologica series.

The two volumes of essays coming from Europe – the
Northern as well as the Southern part including the whole
Mediterranean area – relate to prac cally all the fields of
the today’s ongoing phenomenological research. They
present a general idea of how phenomenologists from
this area today confront the “classical” ques ons of phenomenology and show how new themes and modes of
inquiry have been opened. A large part of the essays deal
with the central ques ons of the phenomenology, such
as world, consciousness, ego, language, truth, epochē,
phenomenality, body, alterity, a en on, affec on, and
praxis, but also with fresh and provoca ve topics, such as
dance, border experiences, violence, and biological objects. The main figures of the phenomenological movement have, of course, a privileged place. In the order of
the frequency of occurrences, they are Husserl, MerleauPonty, Heidegger, Schutz, Gurwitsch, Patočka, Levinas,
Michel Henry, Ricoeur, Fink, Rombach, Anders, Noica,
and Dragomir. There are important debates between
phenomenology and representa ves of other philosophical schools and the deeper philosophical tradi on
from Plato and Kant to Wi genstein, Derrida, Foucault,
and Adorno. Other essays shed light on the frui ul relaon of phenomenology with researches in sciences
(ethno-methodology, cogni ve sciences, Gestaltpsy-
chologie) or the arts (pain ng, literature, and architecture).
Finally, some of the essays documents the cultural and
personal milieu in which phenomenology arose, figures
such as those of Adolf und Anne Reinach, Edmund und
Malvine Husserl, and Edith Stein being brought into the
light anew.

This collec on illustrates how basic themes of earlier
phenomenology such as the corporality, ethics, phenomenological method, and resistance to reduc ve
strategies in modernity are s ll part of the contemporary discussion in phenomenology. At the same me, it
shows how phenomenology is able provide frui ul responses to new topics in and outside of philosophy such
as cogni ve science, new media, environmental studies,
studies of other species, as well as the analy cal approaches within philosophy to the theories of mind and
language. Along with other volumes in this collec on,
this volume shows that phenomenology is one of the
world’s most vibrant intellectual movements.
POST SCRIPTUM OPO
What the tle “phenomenology” signifies varies somewhat with the discipline and tendency within the tradion and is itself a theme of reflec on rather like “philosophy” is for philosophers. Some essays here are
historical, some are interpre ve of classical work, and
yet others are not on but in phenomenology and confront rela vely new issues, such as communica on between members of different species. Readers will certainly find unfamiliar names among the authors, in part
because these others come from other disciplines and
na ons, but also because many younger colleagues are
included. And over a quarter of the contributors are
women. Email addresses of authors are included with
their essays so that they can be contacted by colleagues
when there appear to be common interests.

qu’elle est. Les différents essais qui composent cet ouvrage ont ce e convic on en commun: la philosophie
peut seule se faire gardienne de sa propre mémoire et
découvrir le fil conducteur qui la guidera dans son propre labyrinthe. Quelle forme peut alors prendre son histoire, au moment où l’on dit que la métaphysique, qui

Chan-fai Cheung has a passion for photography. His camera is always with him, even when he is taking a flight.
He enjoys seeing the earth from the cruising height of
commercial flight, and always tries to take photos of the
earth 35,000 feet above. But he is not just interested in
the scenery below. As a phenomenologist, he a empts
to see phenomenologically how the earth below appears in terms of form and bounded space. That’s why
he names his second volume on phenomenology and
photography Earthscape, a term he has borrowed from
Edward Casey. In the framed space of the phenomenologist-photographer’s camera, the natural topography
and geography are transformed into layers of pa erns
and lines, contrasts of colours and light—photographic
images no longer the everyday views of mountain, sea
or river. The book also features phenomenological reflec on on earthscape photography by Elmar Holenstein, Jeff Malpas, and Kwok-ying Lau.
Chan-fai Cheung received his Dr. phil. degree from Freiburg University, Germany. His major research interests
include phenomenology (especially the philosophy of
Tes monia
“Landscape painters and earthscape photographers depict more than the objec ve, physical aspects of an area.
They succeed to convey to us an area’s subjec vely experienced effects…. Chan-fai, we can appreciate soon, is
not an ordinary phenomenologically trained photographer. … [I]t is only a few decades since we are capable
of seeing the earth ten kilometers from above out of the
windows of an airplane. For the first me in the long
history of humanity gi ed ar sts can lay out the structures of the earth for us from such a height…. Un l recently ar s c earthscape pictures from such heights
were mainly the work of European and American photographers. The me has come for Chinese photographers grown up in their qi-sensi ve tradi on of landscape pain ng to join them. Chan-fai has seized this
kairos.” (Elmar Holenstein).
“The range of images that appear in this book is quite
astounding, and their diversity is matched by their o en
breathtaking beauty. Some images have a quality akin
to works of abstract pain ng… others have the delicacy
and ambiguity of Chinese landscape pain ngs… yet others look like the work of an obsessive realist eager to
cram as much detail as possible onto the canvas so that
the reality of the image, like the visions that appear in
surrealist pain ng, becomes a source of seeming unreality…. [T]hese are not mere recording of views, but precisely as views—as bounded views—they also enable a
par cular manner of appearing of that which is represented. In this respect, the act of photography, like any
act of representa on, and precisely in virtue of its character as representa on, always operates to reveal aspects of the world that might otherwise go unremarked
or un-no ced.” (Jeff Malpas)

De l’obten on de son habilita on à enseigner en 1915
jusqu’à l’interdic on de sa par cipa on à toute ac vité
universitaire en 1946, puis de la levée de celle-là
qu’accompagne son éléva on à l’éméritat en 1951
jusqu’à son départ en retraite en 1958, Mar n Heidegger aura professé trente ans durant, et aux meilleurs
étudiants. Loin pourtant que ses cours aient cantonné
son enseignement à l’Alma Mater, ses séminaires en passaient les fron ères, eux qui, protocolaires ou libres,
publics ou privés, menés seul ou co-dirigés, ont aussi
bien pu se faire à Zürich, Todtnauberg, Zollikon, comme
au Thor ou à Zähringen.
Se faire et non se donner, car Heidegger s’est voulu animateur de séminaires d’un genre nouveau, ou plutôt au
vieux sens du mot, le seminarium désignant la pépinière
où croît un savoir des né, comme tout semis, à être
repiqué, c’est-à-dire transmis, sinon transformé puisque
augmenté. Point de monologue savant partant, mais de
l’ironie et de la maïeu que: désireux de « philosopher
socra quement », le maître faisait tout pour faire de ses
auditeurs des interlocuteurs, et par là même des penseurs, rompus à l’exercice que l’être requiert. Mais sans
doute l’”affaire Heidegger” a-t-elle recouvert l’affaire de
Heidegger qui, parce qu’elle est l’affaire du penser, est
d’abord l’affaire de la pensée.
C’est précisément l’ombre jetée sur ce e pensée, unique
en son genre puisqu’elle le renouvelle, que nous voudrions lever en nous a achant à la pédagogie heideggérienne. Éminent professeur mais surtout simple magister,
dont l’enseignement n’a toujours cherché à offrir à qui
le recevait que les rudiments à par r desquels l’on peut,
non pas s’orienter dans, mais s’ini er à la pensée, Heidegger s’est très tôt démarqué de ses pairs par l’art et la
manière dont il accomplissait leurs gestes ordinaires.
Apprendre et faire apprendre, dialoguer et écouter, lire
et traduire, voir et montrer, philosopher et poé ser, autant de tâches par lui revisitées, qu’il convient justement
de redécouvrir en faisant séminaire.

This book offers astonishingly new insights on the philosophy of Heidegger and his turn. It understands that
Heidegger’s no on of truth involves an implica on on
the part of Dasein, of which this book offers a prime
example. Based on very solid scholarship and taking into
account all the important literature in many languages,
it concentrates on two related and crucial issues, Heidegger’s concep on of truth and his famous “turn”. Taking seriously Heidegger’s own indica ons, the author
cogently argues that the turn has something to do with
a radicaliza on of his understanding of aletheia. It offers
an up-dated appraisal of all the latest wri ngs of Heidegger’s Gesamtausgabe pertaining to the ma er of
truth. This enables the author to respond to Tugendhat’s
famous cri que of Heidegger’s concep on of truth and
fam
a new interpreta on of the legendary “Kehre”

Metaphysics and psychology are two of Brentano’s main
areas of interest in philosophy. His first wri ngs, the disserta on On the Several Senses of Being in Aristotle
(1862) and the habilita on thesis, The Psychology of
Aristotle (1867), bear witness to the duality of his concerns. As such, these works were not only significant
contribu ons to the German Aristotelianism of the second half of the XIXth century, but they also played an
important role in the development of Brentano’s later
philosophy and in defining his school of thought. At the

There are numerous books which seek to interpret Mar n
Heidegger’s seminal text, Beiträge zur Philosophie (Vom
Ereignis), and others which address the ques on of how
to translate his wri ngs. By joining these two tasks, Transla on and Interpreta on: Learning from Beiträge, stands
out from other such books in the field of Heidegger studies. The volume begins with Parvis Emad’s transla on of
an original essay by Mar n Heidegger, “Contribu ons of
Philosophy. The Da-sein and the Be-ing (Enowning).”
Through six carefully cra ed essays, Emad then takes the
reader through a journey which examines the rela onship
between Heidegger’s being-historical thinking and such
key figures—including Friedrich Nietzsche, Rainer Maria
Rilke, and Friedrich Hölderlin—who either occupy the
forefront at the end of metaphysics or mark the “crossing” to the “other beginning.”
This book will be of special interest to scholars and graduate students alike, whether in philosophy or such diverse
fields as poetry and linguis cs.

one. The studies comprising this volume examine the
relevance of Brentano’s disserta on, of his metaphysics
and psychology for contemporary philosophical research. Generally, the papers emphasize a tendency in
Brentanian research, which has become more conspicuous in the last two decades, and can be described as a
gradual shi in focus from the specific problems of Brentano’s late philosophy, towards his earlier philosophy,
especially his first wri ngs and manuscripts. Taking into
account both Brentano’s published works, and the manuscripts of the disserta on and the Psychology, the contribu ons of this volume manage to emphasise unexplored aspects of Brentano’s philosophy and stand
witness to the complexity and the historical dimension
of a legacy whose richness s ll awaits full discovery.

Assuming that images are not merely our projec ons
onto the world, what are they? First of all, we are living in
an era in which visual images and the visualizing of things
that are not necessarily visual has accelerated so dramatically that the global circula on of images has become an
end itself, especially through Internet. Related to this, the
context of the images is now wide and open for new
forms of interpreta on. Nowadays images are more
prone to circula on, changed contexts, and remaking. An
image can slip nimbly between the realms of desire and
the everyday, dream and wakefulness, subjec ve and collec ve memory, but also an image can be a world whose
experience of the real is, in actuality, constantly and impercep bly shi ing between these categories.
Thoughts on Images is a metatheore cal, and in some
sense also metaprac cal account of how we can approach
the role of the image in our contemporary visual and media culture. We are living in a visual and pictorial culture
and the contemporary culture is deeply immersed in
changing cultural and technological forms. The important
ques on is raised as how far new media and communicaon techniques do actually determine he culture they
actually exist within. The significance of the images in
today’s world is greater than ever. Consequently, images
have to be studied in a variety of ways and using a wide
range of methods and approaches. Images are everywhere around us. In front of the images we have to make
choices between the surface of the image and the virtual
world it refers to. The percep on of the images is not just
the processing of the informa on but also a psychic experience and not straight compara ve with the informaon contained in the pictorial image.

In diesem Buch wird das sich von der Moderne dras sch
unterscheidende postmoderne Leben erörtert. Es
werden postmoderne Visionen eines sich mit der gegebenen Alltagswelt (Familie-, Schul- und Arbeitswelt) auseinandersetzenden Menschen aufgezeigt, der auf der
Suche nach Sinnha igkeit im Leben ist und der Hoffnung
schöpfen will in einer auf Verwertungsrationalität,
Nutzenmaximierung, Warenbeziehungen, Verdinglichung und Konsum reduzierten modernen Gesellscha ,
was dazu führt, dass der Mensch den Tag hinter sich
bringen will. In dieser Form modernen Lebens eignet
sich der Mensch eine unterwürfige Geisteshaltung an.
Im Vergleich dazu beruhen die postmodernen Visionen
auf einer Philosophie eines entunterwerfenden, selbstgestalteten Alltagslebens, das sich mit den sozialen, kulturellen und kommunika ven wissenscha lichen Gegebenheiten auseinandersetzt und andere, die Moderne
transzendierende Projekte zu realisieren versucht. Diese
neu empfundene, postmoderne Macht eines sinnvollen
und schöpferischen Tä gseins (Selbstempowerment)
reflek ert die selbstschaffende Ökologie des Geistes in
der Alltagspraxis, in welcher die mit Hilfe von Wissenscha und Technologie gefes gte Macht über die Natur
und die menschliche Ga ung der Moderne durch ein
postmodernes gemeinsames Miteinander - einer Gestaltungskra aller - ersetzt wird. Sinn im Leben wie im Tod
zu finden steht in enger Verbindung mit den Vorstellungen einer eigenen Lebensgestaltung in der Schul-, Arbeitsund Konsumwelt, einem autopoie schen Leben, das es
dem Menschen im ewigen Kreislauf des Lebens ermöglicht, eine souveräne Haltung im Hinblick auf das Leben
und den Tod einzunehmen. Es wird im Buch gezeigt,
welche Transforma onen in der Geisteshaltung des Individuums und der Beziehungen der Menschen untereinander au ommen müssten, wenn moderne Strukturen
aufgebrochen und neue postmoderne sinnha e Handlungen entwickelt werden könnten, die in der Lage wären, zu
einer diversifiziert und fröhlichen Kultur beizutragen.

During the first decade of its existence, from 1999 to
2008, the Society for Phenomenology and Media held
annual interna onal conferences in San Diego (California), Puebla (Mexico), Krakow (Poland), Helsinki (Finland), Buenos Aires (Argen na), Provo (Utah), and Monmouth (Oregon). Papers delivered at these conferences
were published in the Society’s journal, Glimpse. The
current volume is an anthology of essays drawn from the
first ten years of Glimpse.
The Society for Phenomenology and Media was founded
by Paul Majkut. From its birth, the Society sought to
bridge the gap between contemporary media theory
and prac ce and phenomenological insight. The Society
currently has over 100 interna onal members. Essays in
this anthology include work on digital representa on,
film, mobile communication, cyberspace, medieval
manuscripts, print, radio, the stage, TV, virtual reality,
and other media, as well as theore cal papers dealing
with media aesthe cs, epistemology, ethics, poli cs,
and ontology.
Papers included draw a en on to the implica ons for
media of the thought of Althusser, Deleuze, Foucault,
Flusser, Husserl, Ihde, Ingarden, Iser, Levinas, Negri,
McLuhan, Merleau-Ponty, Stein, and others. While various phenomenological approaches remain important, the
Society is open to all perspec ves on media. Feminist,
formalist, essen alist, existen al, hermeneu c, materialcultural, Marxist, post-colonial, and other approaches all
play a role in the Society for Phenomenology and Media.

components extend that are absolutely indubitable, in

Kairos, a Greek concept, means the right moment, the perfect me, the cri cal “now”. Photography is a play of me
and light. The amount of me allowing light to get into the
camera determines the quality of the photograph. If photography is considered as art, then the clicking of the shutter by the conscien ous photographer for a par cular phenomenon through his photographic seeing is what

Ce livre montre que Heidegger n’a pas toujours prôné le
dépassement de la métaphysique et qu’il s’est même
réclamé, entre 1927 et 1930, d’une pensée ouvertement
métaphysique. Guidé par la découverte de la structure
onto-théologique de toute pensée métaphysique, Heidegger a alors cherché à élucider les liens qui unissent
l’universalité et la primauté d’un tel ques onnement.
Prenant appui sur l’ensemble des textes (dont plusieurs
conférences encore inédites), cet ouvrage cons tue la
première tenta ve de saisir les visées et la grandeur du
projet métaphysique heideggérien.
La dernière philosophie de Heidegger a fait ombrage à
ce projet résolument métaphysique. Mais elle ne saurait
faire qu’il n’ait pas existé. Un livre comme celui-ci est
donc indispensable si l’on veut comprendre non seulement ce qui aurait pu être, mais aussi ce qui fut. (Préface
de Jean Grondin)

Beaucoup de ceux qui s’autoproclament « phénoménologues » ont oublié (l’ont-ils su un jour ?) que ce qui est
fondamental dans l›approche phénoménologique est
une chose qu›on peut appeler de manière simple « analyse réflexive ». Beaucoup de « phénoménologues »
auto-proclamés consacrent une grande part, si ce n›est
la totalité de leurs efforts à construire des argumentaires
pour ou contre des thèses, comme cela se fait en philosophie analy que, où beaucoup ne peuvent pas concevoir qu›il puisse même exister d›autres approches que

Chan-fai Cheung received his Dr.phil degree from Freiburg
University, Germany. His major research interests include
phenomenology (especially Husserl and Heidegger philosophy); philosophy of love, death, and happiness; and
Utopian thought. He is now serving at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, where he obtained his BA and MPhil
degrees, as Professor and Chairman of the Department
of Philosophy, as well as Director of the following department and units: University General Educa on, Research
Centre for General Educa on, and Leadership Development Programme. He is the author/editor of, among others, Chinese Qing, Western Love (in Chinese), Memory

The poetry of these images captured me from my very
first viewing—whether vibrant or serene, tac le or cerebral, innocent or devilishly self-reflexive, each image
contributes to a poem in the making, an ‘epic’ of experience with a single subjec vity at its ‘center.’ But this is a
metaphor for phenomenology: Chan-fai’s poem allows
each of us to be that subject, to reflect upon the cons tuon of the world as it appears. (Steven Crowell)
‘Photo’ derives from Greek phos and photos, meaning
‘light.’ Chan-fai is an enlightener. Nietzsche said: ‘Licht wird
alles, was er fasst.—Everything he touches becomes light.’
Colours become colourful. Figures become figura ve. A
snapshot becomes a kairos. (Elmar Holenstein)
Es ist ein wundervolles Buch: ein Sehen in Photos, was mir

Today it might be needless to remind that the rela onship
between phenomenology and theology is one of the most
debated topics in the field of con nental philosophy. Beginning with the Husserlian inves ga ons of religious life,
passing through Heidegger’s discussion of the sacred, and
ending with the “theological turn” of the French phenomenology (admi edly illustrated by E. Levinas, M. Henry,
J.-L. Marion or J.-Y. Lacoste), in conjunc on with the evergrowing interest of contemporary theologians in the phenomenological method, the conceptual boundaries between these two “types of discourse” have been
ceaselessly shi ed. Un l this day the subject remains
highly controversial and, indeed, bears witness to a necessary discussion in contemporary thought.

Par-delà les existences individuelles, les époques et les circonstances, la possession de biens, de valeurs et d’idées se

passant par la transmission—au sein de groupes d’individus—de principes communs, ce e con nuité semble
habituelle et même nécessaire. D’étapes en étapes,
quelque chose se reçoit, s’entre ent, se conserve et enfin

In this book Adina Bozga a empts to make room for
what she calls a phenomenology of singularity. Bozga
believes that Edmund Husserl’s phenomenology undermines the possibility of an adequate phenomenological
account of the singular, however she maintains that the
singular can be retrieved by radicalising the phenomenological project. She illustrates this by focusing on the
manner in which phenomenology understands the phenomena of me, the self and the world. In the first part
of her book Bozga argues that Husserl’s phenomenology
makes room for what she calls ‘a phenomenology on
singuarlity’. This comes to light when studying Husserl’s
account of sensuous hyle, the individual, the transcendental Ego and the world. However, she argues that Husserl fails to provide for a phenomenology of singularity
since according to Husserl, phenomenology can and
should only describe what is given to the synthe c structure of inten onal consciousness. Since the singular refers to a unity that is absolutely original and cannot be
appropriated by the reflec ve gaze of consciousness—it
[email protected]
www.zetabooks.com
refers to a non-phenomenon that refuses to be given—it
thus appears that the singular has to remain outside the
realm of phenomenological descrip on. To avoid this
conclusion, Bozga argues that if phenomenology wishes
to remain true to its principle, namely, to ‘return to the
things themselves’, it should facilitate the return to such
a primal ‘non-synthe c singular’. In the second part of
the book she there foresets herself the task of exploring
whether such a return is possible within the phenomenological project. Ini ally Bozga focuses on Emmanuel Levinas’ work to show that we can account for the singular
either by poin ng to a radical transcendence or to a
radical immanence. She believes the la er to be truer to
the spirit of phenomenology and illustrates this point by
turning to the work of Michel Henry. The book is extremely mely since it touches on themes that are of
paramount importance within the phenomenological
tradi on in France today. Par cularly impressive is Bozga’s use of Michel Henry, who is hardly known in the
English speaking world and whose work is s ll in need of
transla on. Hopefully this book will bring about an interest in his work which is long overdue. (Lilian Alweiss)

This work is the result of a crossed research between

problems of corporality and incarna on of the meaning
of the experience itself. The leading idea of our research
is that of searching an approach of the significa on, of
the comprehension and of the truth that would cons tute an alterna ve to both transcendental idealism and
reduc onist materialism. Our posi on could be summed
up in the formula of phenomenological experien al realism. The syncre sm of the approaches is the main methodological characteris c of the book, as it is reflected in

to Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy of the flesh. The fundamental idea that encompasses our project is that of a “corporeal scheme” in the heart of the percep ve, cogni ve and
linguis c process, which, in its prac cal and affec ve interac on with the environment, forms our spirit and gives a
cogni ve coherence to our experience of the world.

We come across an era of strong and even more unusual

the most intriguing philosophical ques ons is how to link
human responsibility to those consequences of ac on which
no one can fully foresee but, nevertheless, which no one can
afford to neglect. Many biotechnological challenges are of
this nature. This book is meant to give some insights in the
mutual jus fica on which ought to regulate the space between autonomy and responsibility by taking up a stance on
some dilemma c issues in the medical field.

Cet essai se propose de me re en évidence la première
exposi on de la doctrine schellingienne de l’Absolu. Sans
doute, vaut-il mieux la qualifier d’intui on première,
puisque l’exposi on proprement dite sera livrée plus
tard. Comme la prime spécula on de Schelling est commandée par le projet de Fichte, l’intui on fleurit dans
les condi ons de l’idéalisme naissant. Il n’est pas aisé de
faire la part de l’influence de la probléma que fichtéenne
et celle de la vision originaire. Seront étudiées les
œuvres des années 1794-1795. A ce e époque, Schelling n’avait qu’une connaissance fragmentaire de la philosophie de Fichte. Dans une certaine mesure, l›analyse
perme ra de dégager ce qui lui appar ent en propre.
Les deux traités qui intéressent par culièrement la recherche sont le Vom Ich (Du Moi comme principe de la
philosophie) et les Le res sur le dogma sme et le cri cisme. Dans le premier, l’Absolu possède une qualité ontologique et une qualité gnoséologique dont il s’agit de
délimiter les rapports. L’interpréta on des Le res permet

de situer plus exactement la sphère originelle de l’ontologique par delà Fichte et Spinoza (tels que compris par
Schelling). Le propos n’est pas de comparer la doctrine de
Schelling avec celles de Fichte et Spinoza, mais uniquement de me re en relief et expliquer la seule doctrine de
Schelling. Une philosophie est essen elle pour autant
qu’elle va à l’essen el. A un moment ou l’autre, elle commence nécessairement par soi (c’est-à-dire sans le secours
des autres doctrines) même si elle peut recouper d’autres
concep ons et rejoindre quelques unes dans l’Idée de la
philosophie. Il est moins important de savoir si l’auteur
était en èrement conscient de l’originalité de son œuvre
lorsqu’il l’écrivit que d’établir la spécificité de l’intui on.
En tout état de cause, le texte d’un philosophe peut et

Pendant toute son histoire, la philosophie a enseigné le
retour du soi sur soi-même. De Socrate au néoplatonisme, le retour chez soi cons tue une exigence constante en vue d’acquérir la sagesse et de trouver la vérité. L’opposition entre l’intérieur et l’extérieur se
superpose à la dis nc on entre ce qui est véritable et ce
qui est apparent, entre être et paraître, entre ce qui est
certain et ce qui est douteux. Aussi a-t-on soutenu que
tout ce qui est authentique et profond relève de
l’intérieur, tandis que l’inauthen cité est la marque de
l’extériorité. Et si la vérité peut être trouvée quelque
part, dans une direc on déterminée, c’est indubitablement à l’intérieur, au dedans. C’est vers l’âme que
l’homme doit se retourner s’il veut trouver la vérité:
c’est ici que l’homme platonicien peut découvrir
l’existence vraie des idées. Ce schéma platonicien a été
rarement mis en ques on et s’est perpétué tacitement
comme dogme indiscutable de la philosophie occidentale, se métamorphosant sous les formes les plus diverses. Mais voilà qu’une voix atypique de la philosophie
du ving ème siècle s’obs ne à affirmer le contraire: il
s’agit précisément d’Emmanuel Levinas. Son discours
philosophique je e une ombre de méfiance sur ce e
excellence et supréma e de l’intériorité. Car dans les
cavités de l’intérieur, dit le philosophe, le soi ne fait que
se cacher: il ne fait que dissimuler la responsabilité qu’il
a à l’égard de l’autre. Le soi se re re et se cache en soi-

Schleiermacher’s Icoses is the first book-length study of
the 1813 Academy address “Ueber die verschiedenen
Methodes des Uebersetzens”; in addi on to celebra ng
its 200 years of influence, the book undertakes a comprehensive examina on of the whole argument, from its
theory of hermeneu cs to its foreignizing theory of transla on and all the passing “poe c” elements on which
Schleiermacher’s rhetoric always so heavily relied. The
“icoses” in the tle are specifically an ar cula on of the
Gefühle/feelings that lie at the heart of Schleiermacher’s
hermeneu cs—specifically, his insistence that feelings
are shaped by society, and so seem “objec ve” or “universal,” but are experienced inwardly by each individual,
so that they seem “subjec ve” and “private.” Researchbased “feeling one’s way into an author” is guided by
culture, and is therefore not, pace certain twen eth-century hermeneu cal philosophers, mys cal but “ico c.”
Tes monia
Robinson‘s intriguing study of Schleiermacher‘s 1813 Academy address „On the Different Methods of Transla ng,“
which grew out of an ar cle commemora ng its bicentennial, is the first book-length commentary on the address.
Robinson works me culously through the en re text, both
the German original and his own English transla on, exposing its logical and other argumenta ve flaws mercilessly,
but in order not to a ack or dismiss it, rather to show that
logic is not the right interpre ve lens through which to view
Schleiermacher‘s project. The right lens, Robinson suggests, is what he calls „icoses“: social ecologies that shape
our thought and convic ons as members of a social group.
The result is a fresh look at Schleiermacher‘s address and
the hermeneu cs that inform it, and one that generates
surprising new insights into foreigniza on, feeling-based
hermeneu cs, and the Roman c ethos of estrangement.
(Radegundis Stolze, Technische Universität Darmstadt)
Robinson‘s reading of Schleiermacher deals in detail with
the whole address, and more, bringing out numerous problems that have remained hidden, dormant, and should
be discussed. It provoca vely picks up what any close
reader feels: Schleiermacher‘s is not a highly coherent
account of transla on - it got some things right but le
many gaps and contradic ons. Robinson‘s inquiry suggests how the unresolved problems might be approached
in an unexpected way: by a hermeneu c blurring of disnc ons between the subjec ve and the objec ve, the
psychological and the linguis c, the individual and the
social. (Anthony Pym, Professor of Transla on and Intercultural Studies Rovira i Virgili University, Visi ng Professor Monterey Ins tute of Interna onal Studies)

works on the theory of transla on and applied works,

This book examines the founda ons of cosmopolitanism
and ways of conceiving non-totalizing founda ons of cosmopolitanism. The core idea shared by all cosmopolitan
views is that all human beings belong to a single community and the ul mate units of moral concern are individual
human beings, not states or par cular forms of human associa ons. Nevertheless, the a empts to ground a poli cal
theory on overarching universal principles, inevitable in
construc ng a cosmopolitan theory give to cosmopolitanism a certain tempta on to founda onalism that is in contradic on with the plurality of social, cultural, poli cal, religious interpreta ve standpoints in the contemporary
world. The book explores the possibili es of overcoming
this contradic on inherent in advancing a cosmopolitan
theory. The innova ve aspects of the book are in its focus
on founda ons/grounds of cosmopolitanism and in its attempts to advance approaches of cosmopolitanism that
will avoid firm/given founda ons.

Maurice Blanchot est un intellectuel mul ple, à la fois
écrivain, cri que li éraire et philosophe. S’il existe bien
des monographies de son œuvre, la présente étude fait
le choix de privilégier un thème comme porte d’entrée
dans ce e œuvre : la mort. De Thomas l’obscur à
L’Instant de ma mort, toute l’œuvre de Blanchot décrit
l’expérience du mourir, la ressasse indéfiniment, conformément au mouvement même du mourir qui toujours recommence et échoue sans cesse à mourir, comme
si le mourir était, non seulement le thème essen el,
mais la dynamique même de l’œuvre de Maurice Blanchot. Seule sa mort, en 2003, a pu me re un terme à
l’interminable. La pensée du 20ème siècle est marquée
par deux grandes phénoménologies de la mort, celle de
Mar n Heidegger et celle d’Emmanuel Levinas, mais il
revient à Maurice Blanchot de montrer que la dualité
est, non point fortuite, mais fondée dans la chose même,
dans la duplicité de la mort possible et de la mort impossible, de la mort mienne et la plus propre, et de la mort
anonyme et impersonnelle, et de leur renversement de
l’une à l’autre. Ce livre choisit de lire ce e œuvre comme
une philosophie à part en ère, plus précisément comme
une phénoménologie, la reme ant constamment en
perspec ve à par r de ses sources pour montrer comment elle se les approprie, mais aussi comment elle en
cons tue une force de contesta on et de dépassement.
Tes monia
Sans doute Blanchot doit-il être lu comme un immense
écrivain et cri que li éraire, lecteur infa gable de Ka a,
Mallarmé, Bataille, Char, et tant d’autres, mais aussi, et
c’est le mérite du livre d’E enne Pinat que de le montrer
avec rigueur, comme un authen que phénoménologue,
qui n’eut de cesse de s’expliquer, à propos de la mort,
avec Heidegger et Levinas, et de porter l’Idée de phénoménologie “à toute extrémité”. (Jérôme de Gramont)
Ce livre s’efforce de dégager les enjeux philosophiques de
l’œuvre de Blanchot, en prenant pour fil directeur la queson de la mort. Il s’emploie à éclairer ce e œuvre en restuant les dialogues, explicites ou implicites, que Blanchot
a menés avec ses contemporains ou ses devanciers. Et il le
fait avec une remarquable rigueur. (Marlène Zarader)

This book cons tutes an original work of research concerning the development of Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy
in the first half of the 1940s, a period about which li le
is known with certainty. The author supports his discussion with new archival material which demonstrates, for
example, just to what extent the development of Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology was influenced by contemporary research in psychology, an aspect of his philosophy which is very o en neglected. Also, the book
sheds light on the immediate recep on in France, and
specifically within the French academy, of Merleau-Ponty’s first two books, The Structure of Behaviour and Phenomenology of Percep on. It examines hitherto unknown discussions and cri cisms of these works, helping
readers and researchers to understand them more fully
in their wider historical and philosophical contexts.

Ce livre s’intéresse à la rela on entre la doctrine malebranchiste de l’idée et le rôle de Jésus-Christ en tant que

Kant’s cosmopolitan philosophy has, during the last decades, received renewed a en on from a mul tude of scholarly disciplines, ranging from anthropology through sociology to cultural studies, but foremostly among various forms
of globaliza on studies, mostly of a poli cal-theore cal
nature. The recent development of a „cosmopolitan turn”
in social sciences and the humani es – triggered by an accelera on of globaliza on and the growing need to address
it from an ethically grounded perspec ve – as well as the
already established oeuvre of Hannah Arendt, Jürgen
Habermas and John Rawls have opened the way for a reevalua on of the Kan an tradi on as both a cosmopolitan
and a properly poli cal way of philosophizing. With this and
some excep onal new literature in mind, the book sets as
its goal a discussion of Kant’s cosmopolitanism as of a dual
endeavour: a poli cal-theore cal one, that aims to establish
Right as a cosmopolitan – universally valid and universally
available – desideratum, and a specifically philosophical
one, trying to pursue Reason’s interest as a meta-poli cal,
however historical, given. The dialogue between these two
aspects of the very same philosophy unfolds as an unending
process that produces, however, cultural forms informing
poli cs and driving enlightenment pace the crises of modernity and the excesses it provokes. One ins tu onal result of
de facto cosmopolitanism where the ends of Reason meet
with the impera ves of poli cs is a cosmopolitan cons tuon, a Kan an concept that is ever closer to becoming
something more palpable than an ideal.

Even though Transla on Studies and Hermeneu cs share
a common interest in the communica ve media ng processes, these two disciplines have co-existed and developed with strikingly li le interac on since the advent of
Transla on Studies in the mid-20th century. While growing into a discipline dis nct from philology, linguis cs and
cultural studies, TS has constantly drawn upon all of those
fields. Only recently, however, has a new field of studies
emerged within TS that fuses the la er with Hermeneucs: Transla onal Hermeneu cs. This new sub-discipline
taps into the holis c approach to research found in the
phenomenological tradi on and incorporates hermeneucal exege cal methods as it redirects its a en on to the
individual person as the center of the media ng process.
The purpose of the symposium was to explore avenues in
which Hermeneu cs and Transla on Studies could complement one another and thereby strengthen research on
both oral and wri en media on of textual content. The
discussions helped to develop the contours and goals of
and simultaneously set limits to the scope of this emerging
field of studies, Transla onal Hermeneu cs. This volume
presents some selected contribu ons from that symposium. Those are, interes ngly enough, either situated in
theory or in literary studies of tradi onal orienta on with
a focus on the symbolic nature of an opus regarding the
hermeneu cal method, and an applica on in postcolonial
studies. The great focus on theore cal observa ons might
be due to the fact that this symposium, for the first me
ever, brought together scholars from all over the world who
are interested in Hermeneu cs and Transla on Studies.

The Hunt of Pan: Francis Bacon’s art of
experimenta on and the inven on of science
Book Series: Founda ons of Modern Thought
Availability: Paperback & Electronic (pdf)
Publica on date: 2014
Language: English
ISBN: 978-606-8266-05-3 (paperback)
ISBN: 978-606-8266-06-0 (ebook)
Francis Bacon’s philosophy of experiment has o en been
subject to fierce debates and some mes straigh orward
interpreta ve abuse in the wri ngs of historians of philosophy or historians and philosophers of science. Despite the
widespread agreement that experience, experiment and
experimenta on do play a role in Bacon’s wri ngs, researchers do not agree on any other par culars with respect to the
meaning, importance and purpose of Baconian experimenta on.
The general claim of this book is that a thorough inves gaon of Bacon’s natural and experimental histories can unveil
a very elaborate and sophis cated philosophy of experiment. Such an inves ga on has not been done so far and,
in doing it, I will provide, I hope, a good number of interes ng
and insufficiently explored examples and useful case-studies
for answering the preceding ques ons regarding the rela on
between theory and experiment in Bacon but also, more
generally, in the early modern experimental philosophy.

Quod omnes tangit. Une histoire médiévale
du consentement poli que (XIIIe-XIVe s.)
Publica on date: 2014

Pour le chercheur en histoire des doctrines et des ins tuons poli ques, le Moyen Âge est devenu grâce aux
travaux de W. Ullmann, St. Ku ner et B. Tierney un temps
définitoire pour la réflexion cons tu onnelle issue d’une
rela on féconde entre les théories poli ques et les différentes visions ecclésiologiques. Le thème de notre travail
se trouve au carrefour de plusieurs direc ons de recherche qui s’occupent de la classifica on des régimes
poli ques au Moyen Âge, de la rela on entre la loi naturelle et la loi divine, du rapport entre l’idée aristotélicienne de la réalité poli que naturelle et « le concept de
citoyenneté par cipa ve à l’intérieur des cités-États »
(H.J.Burns). En quoi consiste le rôle détenu chez les auteurs médiévaux par les sources de la sagesse poli que
auxquelles ils font appel ou de la condamna on véhémente de la tyrannie ? Quel est le vocabulaire poli que
engagé par le consentement et quelle est la vraie significa on de l’appel à la majorité lorsqu’on lui demande
d’exprimer sa voix poli que ? Ces ques ons nous perme ront d’entrer dans ce que la pensée poli que du
Moyen Âge a de plus spécifique, tout en nous faisant remarquer ses ouvertures vers les temps modernes.

OUR INTERNATIONAL RESELLER

München, Germany, [email protected]
58 / 59
Zeta Books is an international publishing house in the Humanities. Its focus is
on quality scholarly content in a broad range of areas. Our values are: quality,
creativity, scholarship, depth and breadth, cosmopolitanism, and vision. We
are committed to be as competitive as possible on both the academic and
nonacademic publishing markets and on working with authors, editors, and
customers from as wide as possible geographical and intellectual distributions
and traditions for the progress of knowledge.
We are keen on quickly adapting to the most recent, dynamic developments
in the modern electronic publishing techniques, as well as nostalgic and
conservative with respect to the continuing Gutenberg era of traditional
publishing techniques. We publish in several languages and are open to all
cultural traditions. The members of our editorial teams come from all academic
areas: scholars with specific backgrounds in Anthropology, Sociology, History,
Philosophy, History of Art, Translation Studies, Theology, etc. They provide a
careful examination and selection of the Zeta Books publications.
Zeta Books has been publishing 10 book series so far and has also been editing
4 academic journals. We are keen on seeing these numbers and corresponding
covered areas gradually expanding, but always with an eye on quality, rather
than quantity.
